Complete moisture detection system for flat roofs
Keep your flat roof in top condition with Tector’s advanced moisture detection system.
How do we detect moisture in flat roofs?
- Tector’s wireless moisture sensors communicate directly with our web-based app, providing real-time data and alerts.
-
- Using AI, we continuously monitor moisture levels 24/7, ensuring you're always in control—no matter where you are.
-
- Making it a complete moisture detection and protection for your flat roof without the need for manual checks.
The Challenge
Constructing a flat roof often brings significant risks. On average, these risks account for 3.31% of total construction costs, and we’ve observed more than one instance of damage during construction across various projects. Alarmingly, over 50% of flat roof projects experience defects that lead to critical disruptions post-handover.
Common causes of these defects include:
- Workmanship issues: Poor quality work can result in vulnerabilities.
- Rushed construction: Lack of quality assurance can lead to oversights.
- Technical design flaws: Inadequate planning can compromise the roof's integrity.
- Material damage: Accidental breaches of the roof felt by subcontractors can cause serious problems.
Moreover, the risk of water ingress increases with features such as:
- Solar panels: These can add weight and create penetrations in the roof.
- Green/blue roofs and terraces: Additional layers complicate leak detection.
- Technical installations: Multiple penetrations can make sealing challenging.
The Solution
To mitigate these risks, install Tector moisture sensors every 15-25 m² in critical areas, depending on the roof's complexity. These sensors are placed beneath the roof felt and insulation but above the waterproofing membrane.
Installation is quick and easy, taking less than a minute per sensor and can be done by your team on-site.
This proactive approach is powered by our application with AI-driven Risk Score analysis for flat roofs, ensuring immediate alerts.
If the roof felt is compromised and moisture starts to penetrate the insulation layer, allowing you to address issues before they lead to costly repairs and damage to the underlying structure.
